Modified First Gen Lexus GS300, 2JZ-GTE pumping just under 400whp, black powdered stock wheels wrapped in BFG G-Force rubber, full suspension tuned for touring with a little drift, crossdrilled and slotted rotors bitten by ebc greenstuff pads. Ignition upgrades and AFC Neo, and 3" plumbing from the motor all the way back. Most people at night thought it was a persuit car for law enforcement. I miss that power.

Also had a 10,000lb F250 cargo van with a modified 351W and full exhaust that sounded like a top fuel dragster! At the time I was doing trim construction in the hill country and everytime I pulled up to a job site my buddy would yell INS to see if anyone would bolt

Before that, a modified and gutted '79 mustang with a 4L I6 used for drifting and some dirt oval.

AND, my first car was a '76 Lincoln Continental Mark IV with a 460c.i. that of course,...... I modified! 750 double pumper, cam, trans upgrades, rear end, full exhaust, sounded like a drag boat with that glubglubglubglub, would light the tires up at 40mph. There was a point that I went from miles per gallon to gallons per mile FML. But it was FUNNNNN!!!!!!!!

When I'm not in the fit I'm on an '02 ZX6R that is,...well.....modified!

I just picked up a 2012 Fit Sport MT and it suits my DD needs. The Fit will be doing all the daily driving and the STi will be the weekend car.

The Fit. Finding this color and transmission was a PITA.

2003 Infiniti FX-45. Had every option including 12MPG! I am guessing that my new Fit on its worst day will not sink that low.

97 4dr civic w/b18b swap. Fit feels roomier...definitely more versatile. Best move I've ever made!

Before picking up my 2012 Fit sport I drove a beast
2011 Mustang GT 5.0 with 600hp Kenne Bell supercharged motor

I had to run nothing but premium gas and occasional race gas at the track.
I'm really loving my fit as gas just topped $5.00/gal here in L.A.
